ok guys,

if any one is up for it i think we should ""organise as a group" what we should do on the next thursday night.

As suggest maybe Mt Cootha?

so here are my suggestion, meet as group at location to be organised. Then cruise out to the moutain and have some fun. then back to another parking lot ( location of which needs to be organised) where we can wait for the mood lights. :(....

since i have no idea of the city area (as most of you now know) pershaps some one who does can suggest a route to take, and suitable locations to start and finsih.

Im going to suggest Thursday the 30th????, and perhaps starting location closer to city so you southsiders dont have to drive so far north to head back south..

If anyone is interested? we got two weeks to organise..So perhaps second time lucky.. just dont let me lead.. :S:S lol

I am keen, I dont knoe about a "route" but I suggest that we meet somewhere close to the city as apposed to Mt cootha as that could be our criuse destiantion. I dont know exactly but we should get some suggestions on where to meet up.

I went for a cruise for the first time in ages to the spit yesterday and it was locked down by police and roads and traffic authorities defecting anything with an exhaust, so they are cracking down on the usual spots. Its a pitty because its not as if car enthusiasts are doing any harm on a sunday when they are trying to catch up with one another, its almost harrassment. But what can i expect.

Agreed Chris, we shouldn't meet at Mt Coot-tha...bit of a hot spot on Thursday nights.

Suggestions:

We could meet at Maccas Coorparoo (doesn't appear to have the same rep as Milton/Aspley) and then drive over toward the bayside...Capalaba or something...otherwise Mt Gravatt, Garden City Carpark and go from there?

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
